Maximum number of units in unit groups?

Is there a limit for the number of units one unit group can have? If there is one, how much is it?

There is something not working in my map and such a limit could explain that, but I never heard of such a limit...

Thanks for help. :)

If you mean the unit group variable, its limit is in thousands, dont remember the excact number but i dont think anybody has ever reach the limit...

I think he means the amount of units you can select at one time. And if that is what you mean, it is 12.

No, Mini-Me did understand me rightly. I know that you can only select 12 units at one time - that's not difficult to see. :lol:
OK, if it's so high, I have another problem... damn it. :x

Huge amount units lag online games easily, hard to micro, people eventually can crash.

Village Builder is example why you need to limit unit amount. Village builder lack that limit and I build 100 buildings continuously units.

Yes, I know that you should always keep the unit amount as low as possible to prevent lag - Guys, come down, I'm not a total beginner. :roll:
Look at Sauron's Revenge - it's not a map you can do within two weeks as your first map, I hope! :wink:

I think that the Unit Group bariable hasn't a limit, I have in my map unit groups with more than 100 units and works perfectly.
If this variable has a limit, this limit is giant, more than 1000 units I think! :P

That's just what Mini Me said! So nothing to care about. With your map it does work. So why not with mine? Always these mysterious bugs... :roll:
But nevertheless thanks for answering! :)

You could submit the trigger that isnt working and we could figure it out together.

The problem is that it isn't one single trigger, there are some of them working together, and maybe they just do what I'm saying to them. 8)
I'll work a little on it and maybe I'll restructure the thing... I'll post it if I don't get it at all, but for now, I'll check it again alone. Thanks for the offer anyways! :)
